Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Igor Pihela made it 2,100 under the gun, seeing Nicolae Paunescu bump it up to 6,500 on the button.
Pihela called after some thought, after which he quickly check-called Paunescu's bets of 2,200 on the A♠6♠6♦ flop and 8,000 on the J♣ turn.
The 7♦ river was quickly checked to showdown. Pihela confidently tabled A♥8♥ for two pair, but he was outkicked by the A♦Q♥ of Paunescu and saw the chips being shipped across the table.
